About Us

Founding partners, Mark Elliott and Steve Gruber have two things in common: a passion for sales and marketing (especially the thrill of a close) and a firm belief that a solid and well executed process will consistently deliver results. They have been consistently proving this since launching VA Partners in 2006. Recent expansion to the team brings added bench strength in the areas of marketing and social media. With almost 50 combined years of sales and marketing experience focusing on software, hardware, services and 
telecommunications the VA team brings a wealth of experience to your company.

The VA Partners Difference

With VA Partners you will:

  • Establish much needed sales processes.
  • Learn how to leverage social media and CRM tools.
  • Build a sales funnel of solid and qualified leads.
  • Close more deals, faster and grow revenue.
  • Save money with seasoned and experienced resources at a fraction of the full time cost.
  • Leverage VA Partners specific experience helping start-ups/growing tech companies in Crossing the Chasm and build a scalable, results-driven sales function.

Other consultants could build and develop your sales strategy, but VA Partners also executes and manages it, turning those words and plans into a tangible and quantifiable sales funnel.

Other firms may provide a contract sales team but they won’t be backed with a process tailored to your growing business or transferrable when it comes time to formalize an in-house sales function.

You have a full view into VA Partners activities and progress through shared access to a CRM tool of your choosing.

Your growth and long-term success is our main priority.

CROSSING THE CHASM

Renowned business writer Geoffrey A. Moore coined the term “Crossing the Chasm“. The leap a start-up technology company must make when moving from marketing their products initially to early adopters, to the mainstream market, is described as the “chasm”. Relating it to sales, we see the chasm as the struggle a company faces when trying to commercialize their product and create a scalable and sustainable sales organization. VA Partners offers sales assistance on a part-time basis providing access to the resources needed to scale in a financially friendly way. Read more about our services.
